New Year - Things About New Years

In the early Julian calendar and the Roman calendar, this was also the first day of the year (after 153 BC). Other cultures observe traditional or religious New Year's Day according to their own customs, usually (but not always) because they utilise a lunar calendar or a lunisolar calendar. Among the most well-known examples are Chinese New Year, Islamic New Year, Tamil New Year (Puthandu), and Jewish New Year. India, Nepal, and other countries also celebrate New Year on dates that are relatively movable in the Gregorian calendar.
